Asian Chicken Salad, Curried Corn Muffins & Recipes

It's rather officially summer now. We're home from vacation, swim team started today, and it's a gorgeous sunny day in Colorado.

As for lunch, there was an executive decision made to alternate bento and non-bento lunches, depending on the food and mood, as I had some recipes to try out that may lend themselves to bento at a future date. Today, however, we decided to use my pretty sushi plates, because we can. (They are dishwasher safe which makes them amazing.)

Today, the kids had an Asian chicken salad, curried corn muffins, carrots, cucumber flowers, sliced strawberries and raspberries with chocolate chips inside them. I loved the way the plate looked afterwards, so you'll be seeing more of the sushi plates soon.
